Today, (11/30/2012) members of the Oklahoma Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force arrested Robert E. Malone (dob: 02/28/1937) at his residence, 5800 Holzman Avenue, Choctaw, Oklahoma. The case was initiated by an OSBI agent working in an undercover capacity investigating the distribution of child pornography over the Internet.

Malone distributed child pornography to the agent on three different dates. ICAC Task Force members from Guthrie Police Department, Oklahoma County Sheriff’s Office, Oklahoma Attorney General’s Office, and the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation served a search warrant at Malone’s home just after 8 o’clock this morning. Investigators found several digital storage devices in the residence that contained child pornography. All items were seized and will be sent to the OSBI Computer Crimes Unit for further examination. The investigation is on-going to determine if any local children were in the images. Malone was booked into the Oklahoma County Jail on three counts of Distribution of Child Pornography, five counts of Possession of Child Pornography, and one count of Violation of the Oklahoma Computer Crimes Act.
